Mites & Beardies

pathigdon Jun 21, 2010 02:53 PM

I have never had an issue with mites on Beardies (or any lizard) until a few days ago. What is the best method to rid them from Beardies.

I have already went to town on all the cages with Permethrin, but not sure what to use on the dragons themselves.

Any and all advise will be greatly appreciated. THANKS!!!

You can get Ivomec from a vet that can be used effectively on the animal as well as the enclosure.
